Partial de-stripe of ROUSH bad idea??
So this is my 3rd mustang since 2008. Typically I like my cars pretty basic on the outside (usually ALL grey LOL). I love my ROUSH but am not in love with all the decals and badging it has on it (I'm guessing it says ROUSH on the car at least 20 different places) I have had victory stripes on my past 2 cars on the fenders:
I was thinking about putting them on my ROUSH, but don't want it to look gaudy since it already has silver and green stripes down the sides and on the hood. I also have been toying with idea of removing the ROUSH windshield banner and the "ROUSHCHARGED" decals on the hood dome as I don't really like them. Most people locally I know tell me I should leave it as it is (purists). I know it is my car, but was just looking for some other opinions...

I'm not fond of decals also. I have a 12 Boss and removed the hood decal after the first year. However......I am a person who likes personality. Those color combos really catch my eye. Its very differant. Maybe loose the supercharged decals and window banner. but leave the Mean Green decals alone. When I look at your car its one that sticks in my head because it has sole. it makes you differant and thats a GOOD thing.
Please post up with your finish pictures if you make changes.

For me, I see a lot of cars with stripes I really like, yet I do not want any on my car. If I ordered Shelby, I would order it 'stripe delete'. I have a friend who is the same way. He removed the stripes from his '03 Mach 1, but put new ones on it when he went to sell it.

LOL, I had a feeling.. I guess I should have clarified I don't plan on removing any of the green and silver, was just thinking about removing the window banner and the ROUSHCHARGED decals on the hood, then MAYBE putting the victory stripe (hash marks) on with the existing green and silver.. I need a photoshop expert..

Leave it. It should be fairly unique as the Roush's do not have too many with the same combinations.
By the way it looks great the way it is... Love the car!
Don't make it look like a Dodge.

It's your car
I do whatever the hell I want with my cars u less Roush wants to start making payments for you
It's not like adding Roush stripes and stickers to a GT. This is you doing what you want.

Decided to do something a little different. I ordered a matte black replacement ROUSH windshield banner and matte black ROUSHCHARGED decals for the hood. I'll post pics once I get them installed. Hopefully they will be more subdued since the car is black, and the eyebrow on the window is obviously black.

Finally got the hood scoop and windshield banner removed and replaced them with flat black ones. Looks 100% better to me now than it did with the bright silver ones. You can only see them now at certain angles as they blend in with the car more now:
